Hi
We mentioned setting up this wiki when Rob and I spoke with you yesterday afternoon, it was great to talk to you all again. This wiki is for all of us to use and I hope that you will all help to build it by adding pages, adding content, asking questions and providing answers. Once you have signed up, you will be able to click on the 'edit this page' link to make any changes to a page, or click on the 'new page' link (in left column) to create a new page.
You can browse the site by clicking on the pages under 'navigation'.
Have fun, and I look forward to seeing your input!
Regards,
Esther

25 sept 08 Hi everyone
Thanks for making Rosemary and me very welcome on our recent September visit.
Since we returned we have sent over draft Action Plans: at the moment they are still discussion points, so we look forward to hearing back from you.
In the mean time, I set a Wiki challenge while we were with you- for each person to share what you hope to achieve from SSLP with your school, and to add your contact details to the Contact details link to the left, at your earliest convenience.
The idea is to use the wiki and put life into SSLP.
We'd love to hear from you
Rob

Hi everybody
Good progress has been made with new books- my thanks to Rosemary for her role- processing and cataloguing and the other work done. There have been some hiccoughs with Access-it, but hopefully it's almost fixed. I'm looking forward to seeing you again, picking up on any issues remaining, having an end of programme evaluation (we can use phones or skype for that) and being involved with the inquiry part of Aotea ICT PD.
I've added a new page to the wiki for the Inquiry learning. There are some great links that are worth exploring.
Keep in touch
Rob
